Bug 225799

rpmlint on SRPM:

gimp.src: E: non-utf8-spec-file /tmp/gimp-2.4.7-1.fc9.src.rpm.25429/gimp.spec
The character encoding of the spec file is not UTF-8.  Convert it for example
using iconv(1).

Fix.

gimp.src:60: W: unversioned-explicit-obsoletes gimp2
The specfile contains an unversioned Obsoletes: token, which will match all
older, equal and newer versions of the obsoleted thing.  This may cause update
problems, restrict future package/provides naming, and may match something it
was originally not inteded to match -- make the Obsoletes versioned if
possible.

gimp.src:156: W: unversioned-explicit-obsoletes gimp2-devel
The specfile contains an unversioned Obsoletes: token, which will match all
older, equal and newer versions of the obsoleted thing.  This may cause update
problems, restrict future package/provides naming, and may match something it
was originally not inteded to match -- make the Obsoletes versioned if
possible.

These are PROBABLY Ok.

gimp.src:439: E: files-attr-not-set
A file or a directory entry in a %files section does not have attributes set
which may result in security issues in the resulting binary package depending
on the system where the package is built.  Add default attributes using
%defattr before it in the %files section, or use per line %attr's.

Fix.

gimp.src:1282: W: macro-in-%changelog files
Macros are expanded in %changelog too, which can in unfortunate cases lead to
the package not building at all, or other subtle unexpected conditions that
affect the build.  Even when that doesn't happen, the expansion results in
possibly "rewriting history" on subsequent package revisions and generally odd
entries eg. in source rpms, which is rarely wanted.  Avoid use of macros in
%changelog altogether, or use two '%'s to escape them, like '%%foo'.

gimp.src: W: mixed-use-of-spaces-and-tabs (spaces: line 5, tab: line 198)
The specfile mixes use of spaces and tabs for indentation, which is a cosmetic
annoyance.  Use either spaces or tabs for indentation, not both.

gimp.src: E: tag-not-utf8 %changelog
The character encoding of the value of this tag is not UTF-8.


Cosmetic, but worth fixing.

rpmlint on RPMS:

gimp.i386: E: non-executable-script /usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/pyconsole.py 0644
This text file contains a shebang or is located in a path dedicated for
executables, but lacks the executable bits and cannot thus be executed.  If
the file is meant to be an executable script, add the executable bits,
otherwise remove the shebang or move the file elsewhere.

Fix.

gimp.i386: W: file-not-utf8 /usr/share/doc/gimp-2.4.7/Wilber_Construction_Kit.xcf.gz
The character encoding of this file is not UTF-8.  Consider converting it in
the specfile for example using iconv(1).

gimp.i386: E: tag-not-utf8 %changelog
The character encoding of the value of this tag is not UTF-8.

Fix.

gimp.i386: W: obsolete-not-provided gimp2
If a package is obsoleted by a compatible replacement, the obsoleted package
must also be provided in order to provide clean upgrade paths and not cause
unnecessary dependency breakage.  If the obsoleting package is not a
compatible replacement for the old one, leave out the provides.

gimp.i386: W: obsolete-not-provided gimp-beta
If a package is obsoleted by a compatible replacement, the obsoleted package
must also be provided in order to provide clean upgrade paths and not cause
unnecessary dependency breakage.  If the obsoleting package is not a
compatible replacement for the old one, leave out the provides.

gimp.i386: W: obsolete-not-provided gimp-perl
If a package is obsoleted by a compatible replacement, the obsoleted package
must also be provided in order to provide clean upgrade paths and not cause

gimp-debuginfo.i386: E: script-without-shebang /usr/src/debug/gimp-2.4.7/plug-ins/imagemap/imap_ncsa.y
This text file has executable bits set or is located in a path dedicated for
executables, but lacks a shebang and cannot thus be executed.  If the file is
meant to be an executable script, add the shebang, otherwise remove the
executable bits or move the file elsewhere.

gimp-debuginfo.i386: W: spurious-executable-perm /usr/src/debug/gimp-2.4.7/plug-ins/imagemap/imap_command.h
The file is installed with executable permissions, but was identified as one

desired, and remove if not.

Fix in setup.

Fix.

gimp-libs.i386: W: no-documentation
The package contains no documentation (README, doc, etc). You have to include
documentation files.

Fix, if available. 

gimp-libs.i386: E: tag-not-utf8 %changelog
The character encoding of the value of this tag is not UTF-8.

Fix.

Otherwise, full review looks good, no other blockers.  Conducting local mock rawhide build to test BuildRequires, lengthy, will post back.  I expect it'll be fine.

Mock build good, BRs are fine.

Hi Jon,

I'll do this in Rawhide, I'll probably only do an update in released versions when there's a new version upstream.

Probably a bug in rpmlint -- this is the "%else" line in this block:

These are issues with the source files which I won't fix in the package (no harm done by having it broken) -- this has been fixed upstream already in the 2.5.x versions.

caught by UTF-8 conversion

Probably that I use an arch-specific requires line:

Requires:       gimp-libs-%{_arch} = %{?epoch:%{epoch}:}%{version}-%{release}

Bogus, but I can't think of how to fix rpmlint.

No special docs about the library, it's all in the application.

NB: Due to the non-executable pyconsole thing, I'll build this is 2.4.7-2 on F-8 and F-9 as well.

Upstream indicated that it's not intended to be executed directly, so I'll just remove the shebang line for the time being.

Awesome.  Thanks for being so responsive.

APPROVED.
